Women's Conference 2016

Took the girls to women's conference. It was Claire's first time and it was not easy for her. But at least she tried. We grabbed dinner afert and then headed to SL to see the Lunt's who were in town for Beth's race. It was a fun night!

Birthday Tables for the Twins

Syd and Bre had their first birthday tables at school. They requested In n Out and for grandpa to come. I'd say they were pretty happy! Claire happen to be coming to lunch as we were leaving and she was able to give grandpa a big hug.

Amy- Hallmark Movie

I got a small part as a featured extra (the secretary) in a Hallmark Christmas movie.It was fun to say I was in a movie but I like the local stuff better. Working with all the LA people wasn't really fun. 

Birthday Happenings for the twins

Syd and Bre were so excited for their birthday! They had both talked about it for weeks! They woke up to presents and breakfast in bed (but they decided to eat on breakfast tables on the floor). A few days later there was a party- complete with a bounce house, face painting, popcorn machine, twister and sidewalk chalk. And of course Linda Sumsion brought them a cake that they got to design. They were thrilled!

Grandma and grandpa also came to wish them a happy birthday and bring a few presents!

They had a great time!

Dear Breanna

Dear Breanna,

Hooray! You're turning 7! I can't believe it! You're the youngest of the family, but dad and I always say you're the most mature. Even more mature than us.

I love your love of science and math. Just last year during your movie you did for the church, you bew everyone away because even through you were in kindergarten and couldn't read all the way, you could still memorize all the lines.

It was because you are so diligent and smart. You take your time and are very cautious. You always seem to make good choices because you think everything through.

You're a great helper to everyone in our family! I don't know what we'd do without you!

Have a wonderful birthday!

We love you!

Love,

Mom & Dad

Dear Sydney

Dear Sydney,

Oh what a sweet girl you are! You have so many amazing qualities. You're a great reader and a great friend to everyone you meet. I love how much you love school and love learning.

One of my favorite things about you is that you never want anyone to go without. Even if one of your sisters has done something to you and should get in trouble, you always say you don't want them to. You have such sweet tender spirit and I love it!

I hope you have a wonderful birthday! You make life so much fun! I love the way you interact with Bre and how much you love her.

Have a fantastic birthday!

We love you!

Love,

Mom & Dad

Bella's Summer of Golf

Fun Night Exercising!

We all went for a quick exercise break at BHS. It was fun!

I love these people!

Labor Day 2016

One last day at the lake with friends! It was a little colder than we'd all like but it was still fun. Claire is the most fun on the wave runners. She giggles and has so much fun!

We had a great time with the Sorenson's!

Family Pictures 2016

It was a rough start getting up and being ready to start taking family pictures at 8:30am on a Saturday. But it was well worth it considering how amazing they turned out!
